Turn it up, but remember, it's not wise to annoy neighbors with strange sounds. Artists A - D AC/DC - Mistress for Christmas No comment on Angus Young's schoolboy-in-disgrace fantasy apparel (see Catholic Girls below). Adam & the Ants - Beat My Guest Adam & the Ants - Rubber People Adam & the Ants - Whip In My Valise Adam & the Ants - Liggotage Adam & the Ants - Christian D´Or Adam Ant - Human Bondage Den Mr. Goody Two Shoes wasn't really. Adhesive - Bondage Beach Wonder if Travelocity can book a direct flight? Aerosmith - Pink If/when I grow up, I want to be Steven Tyler...a total slut in control of my addictions. Extra credit is also awarded for using a Hajime Sorayama illustration for Just Push Play, and the obvious implications of the European cover of Nine Lives. Alice Cooper - Billion Dollar Babies Alice Cooper - Poison Alice Cooper - Little by Little Now, this is twisted: long-haired rock 'n' roll band from Detroit gets discovered by Frank Zappa and cranks out a series of anthemic singles ("Eighteen," "School's Out") that redefines teen angst better than anything this side of "Satisfaction." Lead singer appropriates the band's name for his own, adds frightshow mascara, and develops a Grand-Guignol-meets-Looney-Tunes stage presence that makes the worst hippies look like Marines. By Billion Dollar Babies in 1973, the songlist has taken a severe swerve toward kink, including femdom ("Raped and Freezing"), homosexuality ("Mary Ann"), necrophilia ("I Love The Dead"), and even dentist-office scenes ("Unfinished Sweet"), not to mention a duet with "Mellow Yellow" pothead Donovan (?!?) on the title track where they trade lines about being too rough with their rubber monsters. But it gets better! A few years later, Alice shows he's a switch at heart with a string of poignant (and seriously sub) ballads such as "Only Women Bleed" and "I Never Cry," often sung while wearing thigh-high platforms and a corset. Today, he's celebrated as a beloved family entertainer who just happens to execute himself every night. Wayne and Garth were right...we're not worthy, we're not worthy! Enshrine this (wo)man in the Rock and Roll so-called Hall Of Fame yesterday (although we find ourselves strangely applauding the tragic inclusion of James Taylor, based on the Carly Simon entry below). American Breed - Bend Me, Shape Me Meanwhile, back in the 1960s...also notable as the inspiration for the chorus of Garbage's "I Think I'm Paranoid," which resulted in a plagiarism lawsuit. Angel Dust - The Human Bondage German powermetal that recalls the best of the always-appropriate Iron Maiden. Angelo Badalamenti - Blue Velvet Angelo Badalamenti - Lost Highway Angelo Badalamenti - Secretary Angelo Badalamenti - Twin Peaks The soundtracks to David Lynch's projects always feature Angelo Badalamenti's haunting scores interspersed with moody pop noir like NIN's brilliantly obsessive "The Perfect Drug" (Lost Highway, which also features killer tracks from David Bowie, Lou Reed, Smashing Pumpkins, Marilyn Manson and Rammstein), Julee Cruise's ghost-in-the-machine "Falling" (Twin Peaks) and Roy Orbison's hallucinogenic "In Dreams" (Blue Velvet). Laura Palmer's mummified corpse remains bdsm's defining moment on prime time (for better or worse, see Fire Walk With Me). Curiously and amusingly, Badalamenti has also scored the big-screen version of Ally McBeal having her much-deserved spanking moment (not really, but all cinematic law offices look alike to us), Secretary, featuring Bondage Jukebox hero Leonard Cohen's "I'm Your Man" as the aforementioned moody pop etc. Ani DiFranco - Little Plastic Castles "I wish they could see us now/in leather bras and rubber shorts/like some ridiculous team uniform/for some ridiculous new sport." Hey, we'd like to see that too, Ani. But your cover pose on Dilate will do nicely. Armored Saint - Reign of Fire Bonafide metal (vs. hard rock or worse) band gets bound and gagged. Athamay - Eternal Torture Athamay - Kiss The Whip And don't miss their one-word-review side project, TortureTekk. Atrocity - Tainted Love Insightful assortment of 1980s new wave classics remade as heavy metal, including this ode to kinky sex by Soft Cell (recently covered by Marilyn Manson, too). Frankie say go to 11! Babes in Toyland - He's My Thing From the aptly-titled Spanking Machine...uncompromising is putting it lightly for the original riot grrls who make Hole sound like the Carpenters. Beatles - Chains Ah, remember their early days when the fabs looked real gear in their leather togs (an approach later approximated, along with their setlist of early-60s covers, by the Ramones). And maybe "I Dig A Pony" for the equestrian set, especially since "you can penetrate any place you go." Berlin - Sex (I'm A) While Terri Nunn moans through a rogue's gallery of female sex icons (bitch, hooker, slut, slave), her oblivious partner keeps droning "I'm a man." Later hits like "No More Words" and "Take My Breath Away" confirmed a fondness for mouth-stifling devices. Betty Bondage - Lolita Not to be confused with Vice Squad's Beki Bondage or the late Bianca Butthole from Betty Blowtorch...le punque Français from the late 1980s. Bitch - Be My Slave Los Angeles. 1982. Betsy. Onstage. Boom. Black Tape For A Blue Girl - As One Aflame Laid Bare By Desire More compelling reasons to stay out of the sun. Blondie - I Know But I Don't Know Bazooka bubblegum topped with Debbie Harry's fetish sprinkles ("I'm your dog, but not your pet"), Parallel Lines is a concept album by one of the original Noo Yawk "punk" outfits (dig those skinny ties!) that chronicles the rise and fall of an obsessive romantic crush, from those giddy first moments "Hangin' on the Telephone" to the arch dismissal of "Just Go Away." The remastered reissue includes two versions of "Heart of Glass" and a cover of T. Rex's dirty, sweet ode to a cat in black, "Bang A Gong (Get It On)" in addition to the icy sleekness of "Sunday Girl," a Robert Fripp cameo on "Fade Away And Radiate," and the still-ferocious-after-all-these-years stalker anthem, "One Way or Another." Blue Öyster Cult - Dominance and Submission Blue Öyster Cult - Career Of Evil Blue Öyster Cult - Golden Age Of Leather Subhumans, harvesters of eyes and cagey cretins, unite! On Secret Treaties, Long Island's favorite biker-fascists (their logo even looks like a drunken swastika) continued their career of evil (lyrics by Patti Smith) by splitting the difference between the math-rock compulsions of Tyranny and Mutation and the Byrds-of-prey breakthrough of "Don't Fear The Reaper," turning heavy metal into an art form and function that was far more sleek and sinister than anything Black Sabbath plucked from their soft white underbellies. Although the lyrics often sound like they were encrypted for transmission across enemy lines, all rubic carabs and junkers jumo 004 swimming with blue-eyed horseshoes in the state of Maine while Susie and her blindfolded brother dig "The Locomotion" in Times Square on New Year's Eve in 1963, there's no missing the Chuck Berry goosestep boogie of "ME 262," a stirring hymn to the Luftwaffe's jet fighter that also graces the cover, the whipcrack riffrot of "Dominance and Submission," the interstellar grandeur of "Astronomy" (adoringly covered by Metallica, who used this album as their blueprint), and especially the synthesonic apocalypso of "Flaming Telepaths," in which Alan Lanier's barrelhouse piano duels with Buck Dharma's dizbustin' guitar licks in a blown-hemi sprint to see who can peak first from the faster-and-louder rush, while singing-from-cue-cards Eric Bloom solemnly informs the listener that "the joke's on you." And just to prove that you know they know you know the secret of the circuitry mind, the remastered set encores with a slow-motion remodel of Steppenwolf's leather-lovable "Born To Be Wild." All hail the progenitors of the süpërflüöüs ümlät! Bondage Fruit - IV Japan's answer to King Crimson's Discipline. Bran Van 3000 - Love Cliche Worth finding the vinyl for the suitable-for-framing cover. BR549 - Bettie, Bettie Hey, country cowfolk wear nice boots, too! Not to mention write pedalsteel-to-the-metal, heartfelt tributes to Bettie Page, "a woman from Nashville who moved up to New York and made a name for herself in them 'underground' films,' so to speak." Brian Eno - Baby's On Fire More evocative than literal ("this kind of experience/is necessary for her learning"), and featuring a blistering (ahem) Robert Fripp guitar solo, Eno's ambient records such as Music For Airports make cool soundscapes for scenes, too. Brian Setzer Orchestra - You're The Boss Swingin' duet with No Doubt's ever-fetching (we wish) Gwen Stefani paying homage to Elvis Presley and Ann-Margaret. Britney Spears - I'm A Slave 4 U [(Madonna + Alice Cooper) x Prince] + Gor = so much for worrying about teen girls baring their navels. Extra credit for the leather "biker" (yeah, right) dress, cute collar, groovy gauntlets, shibari-laced heels and Freddie Mercury "uniform" cap she wore at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards (and hey, nice kneepads, Michael!). Need we mention her cover of "I Love Rock and Roll" by fetish queen Joan Jett? Bryan Ferry - Slave To Love Also an excellent excuse to showcase a collection of ever-inspirational Roxy Music album covers. And Avalon is still the best record for fucking, ever (sorry, Marvin). Carly Simon - Slave You don't think she and James Taylor were......naaaah. Carpathian Forest - Black Shining Leather Paint it, black...metal. Catholic Girls - Private School And you think Christina Aguilera prancing around in decadent lingerie is jailbait? Mass appeal (insert groan) unfortunately eluded these 1980s progenitors of princessence. Cheap Trick - Speak Now (Or Forever Hold Your Peace) Did you ever notice how every Cheap Trick song is about sex, drugs and/or suicide? This Terry Reid cover about feeling "all tied up" is their best bdsm moment (barely nudging out "it's such a strange strain on you" from "Downed" and "sorry that I had to gag you" from "Daddy Should Have Stayed In High School"). Cher - Prisoner Now we know why she married Gregg Allman ("Whipping Post") and maybe why she dated Gene Simmons of Kiss. Cherry Poppin' Daddies - Master and Slave We all can use a good swing in the bedroom... Chris & Cosey - Cords Of Love How can you miss with titles like "Synaesthesia," "Percusex" and "Infectus"? Christopher Johnys - SUB A concept album about the joys (and more entertaining emotions) of submission that sounds like Ian Anderson fronting Radiohead. Circle Jerks - Beat Me Senseless Los Angeles chuckleheads get a clue. Cliff Eberhardt - Someone Like You Stripped-down blues from the appropriately-titled 12 Songs of Good & Evil. Concrete Blonde - Group Therapy Johnette's original backup combo gets knotty with cuffs on the cover and straightjackets inside. Cramps - Dames, Booze, Chains and Boots Let us now give thanks for the enduing lunacy and legacy of gutterflash guitar goddess Poison Ivy. Creed - Bound And Tied Grunge lives! Honorable mention: Alice In Chains. Dalbello - Black on Black TPE from the 9-1/2 Weeks soundtrack, later covered by Heart, who always looked divine in medieval corsetry. Dave Gahan - Black and Blue Again Depeche Mode singer goes solo, but still wakes up on the "Dirty Sticky Floor." Also recommended: the mothership's One Night in Paris DVD with the awesome goldfish/shark visuals that were projected behind the band during "In Your Room." Dave Navarro - Venus In Furs Multiple-nipples-on-every-album-cover Jane's Addiction guitarist who serves as in/perspiration for countless fantasies proves everyone right with this Velvet Underground remake that Lou Reed even deemed worthy of an official blessing. David Bowie - Cat People (Putting Out Fire) David Bowie - I Would Be Your Slave Couldn't let Britney have all the fun, eh? Iman must be sooo thrilled. But when you're really in the mood to ball and play and move like tigers on Vaseline, you can't top (or bottom) the original motion picture soundtrack version of "Cat People," produced by Giorgio Moroder. David Coverdale - Slave Robert Plant's most ardent admirer (who actually got Jimmy Page to record an album with him) demonstrates why his first band was called Whitesnake. Dead Can Dance - The Lotus Eaters Last hurrah from the band that either defined or destroyed goth, depending on your tolerance for Jim Morrison tributes. Dean Friedman - S&M; A pop songwriter who saw the light, then turned it down way low. Def Leppard - Ring Of Fire You'll have to search out the Japanese version of Retroactive to find the alternative lyrics that read "a hidden love/forbidden pleasure/suffer secret pain." Depeche Mode - In Your Room Depeche Mode - Master and Servant Depeche Mode - Behind the Wheel Depeche Mode - Strangelove Possibly the most mainstream bdsm-obvious band ever...millions of impressionable youngsters got their first taste of WIITWD (what it is that we do) through these songs. And their latest opus, Exciter, is a non-stop throbfest of shackles, chains, blindfolds and "so much pleasure that it feels like pain." Or vice versa. Devo - Whip It Yes, it's supposed to be a naughty parody of motivational treatises, but it's also s&m's Big Hit Single and beloved by many. Die Ärzte - Sweet Sweet Gwendoline Censored by the German government, but explicit punk pandemonium is always applauded here. Die Form - Slavesex One of many delightful ditties from these ever-industrious industro-goths. Dimmu Borgir - Puritanical Euphoric Misanthro Black metal has become the 21st-century goth, but how can you go wrong with bands named Cradle Of Filth, Emperor, Darkthrone, Immortal, Dissection, Goatwhore, Naglfar, Satyricon, Borknagar, Arcturus, Cryptopsy and especially Enslaved? Divinyls - Pleasure And Pain Christina "I Touch Myself" Amphlett was wearing kinderwhore outerwear a decade before Courtney Love got the same bright idea. Dog Toffee - 8 Ball Gag As they say themselves, "rock and fuckin' roll." Accent on the... Dominatrix - The Dominatrix Sleeps Tonight Silly technovelty that's perfect for those who still smile when they hear Trio's "Da Da Da." Doro Pesch - Tie Me Up What do you get when you gene-splice Stevie Nicks with Xena? One awesome metal queen who rocks harder than cinder blocks in the dryer. Duffy The Dolphin - Baby Be Bad Ya gotta love the modern world when a listener from Brazil recommends a basement collective from Finland's deepest underground. continue to artists e - l search for CDs by artist name at Amazon jump to the top of this page
